All tagged Mom Guilt
When things get tough, it's easy to feel like you have failed as a mom, but you are not alone! We can quit the mom-fail mantra and instead walk in our motherhood calling with grace and truth while considering these three biblical principles to guide our way forward!
As moms, sometimes we have to say “no” to what we want for the benefit of those we love. There isn’t enough time to do all we want and our kids come first. This is a tough reality, but we can find comfort because God's plans are always better than our dreams!
As moms, we often don’t have time for self-care. As Christian moms, we can even feel guilty or indulgent when we try to make time for ourselves. Our culture promotes self-care and defines it as me-time, retail therapy, and time at the spa as a means to regenerate. But what if there is something we are missing? What if self-care means something different than we’ve been led to believe?
Do you realize your work has value? The labor that you put your hands to might not bring in a traditional paycheck, but it matters greatly! Come be encouraged to develop vocation right where you are!
Do you struggle with anger? Constant yelling? Irrational thinking? Come release your shame and learn how to become the Mom you long to be in the moments when it’s easy to lose your cool.
We’ve all been there, the comparison trap. That place where we don’t feel good enough, where our standards and expectations of ourselves meet who we really are. That place where we look at what others are doing with their kids or what we think they are doing, and we feel like a failure. Social media perpetuates this comparison trap and we fall for the bait over and over again.
The comparison trap is a very real place and we are all tempted to fall into it. Whether it be comparing our marriages, jobs, families, children, churches, you name it. But what we don’t often realize in the midst of fighting the good fight against falling into this trap, is that our children are also being tempted to fall into it as well.
